Lead Data Scientist at AIR INDIA

About

A highly driven and passionate Machine Learning Engineer with a strong inclination towards applying AI to real-world problems, particularly in the domains of Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing. With over 6.5 years of experience spanning the aviation, automotive, and industrial sectors, I have successfully built and deployed AI-powered solutions that contribute to operational efficiency, automation, and better decision making. My expertise lies in translating complex business requirements into impactful, scalable solutions while addressing performance, efficiency, and scalability challenges. Currently working as a Lead Data Scientist at AIR INDIA, I am actively involved in developing and deploying computer vision and LLM-based systems. Key projects include queue and passenger behavior analysis, LLM-powered passport and visa verification, AI-based food waste assessment & volumetric prediction, and facial recognition systems for VIP passenger identification. I also work on LLaMA fine-tuning with LoRA for building domain-specific language and vision models. Prior to this, my professional journey includes impactful contributions in the automotive and oil industries, where I developed solutions in gesture navigation, drowsiness detection, collision prediction, and predictive maintenance. My technical expertise lies in Python, Deep Learning, TensorFlow, PyTorch, OpenCV, and deploying models at scale. Outside of work, I like to talk about AI and conduct sessions. I also like to click pictures, travel and explore new places. Let's connect to discuss innovative ideas, collaborate on Al-driven solutions, or simply share our passion for technology.
